Stop Unauthorized "Egg-Sharing" by US Fertility Doctors
Impose an adequate annual tax on fertility doctors in America (based on the average number of IVF cycles/procedures initiated annually) to cover the cost of establishing and operating a national volunteer DNA registry of previous IVF patients, to be used strictly for the purpose of helping children who have been conceived from stolen eggs or embryos search for their true genetic origin, and to cover the cost to train, certify and manage a staff of Bio-Integrity Supervisors to oversee fertility doctors, embryologists, and stem cell research scientists in this country, whenever they're working with human gametes and embryos.
Why is this important?
According to an independent audit that was conducted after the FBI was informed, it appears that IVF (in-vitro fertilization) patients throughout the US are being routinely de-frauded by a heinous, yet common practice that is referred to by fertility doctors in this country as "Egg-Sharing." Without the patients' knowledge or consent, fertility doctors routinely steal a portion of the eggs and embryos obtained from each IVF procedure, and sell them to stem cell researchers and wealthy infertile couples who are willing to pay a substantial fee to these fertility doctors in order to bypass the typical two-year waiting list for an egg donor in this country. In the process, these doctors have created a generation of genetic orphans, who are not genetically-related to one or both of their parents, and who have been robbed of having any knowledge about, or access to, their true genetic origin. Yet, driven by a strong, instinctual need that many humans have to know their true identity, they will someday soon begin searching for their true genetic roots. There is only one feasible and effective way to help these people, and that's by creating a volunteer, discreet and strictly confidential DNA registry of any/all women who have undergone a transvaginal or laproscopic IVF, GIFT and/or ZIFT procedure in the United States. We will need to be patient and understanding with women who fear that they may be contacted without notice, or at an inconvenient time, by a child (or children) they never knew they had. Hopefully, we can earn their trust, appealing to their sense of integrity and compassion for a possible child of their's, who may be earnestly searching for them, but not with the desire for a child-parent relationship. In most cases, these children will only be searching for a better understanding of themselves, and perhaps some information about their genetic health history. It would be wise to require, when a match is discovered, that the "children" be at least 18 years old (or if younger, with the consent of their parents), and participate in a mandatory meeting with an experiened therapist, to hopefully work through any unreasonable expectations, dreams or hopes they may have, before speaking with and/or meeting with their genetic parent. Every single dime spent on this enormous project will be paid by a heafty, annual tax imposed on each and every fertility doctor in the US IVF industry, and the presence of a mandatory, on-site Bio-Integrity Supervisor will henceforth be required at every single IVF procedure in the US. There's no other way to stop the practice of unauthorized egg-sharing in America.
